Hello

I was just browsing through the bookmarks site and I saw two links - printer cartridges and nave seals gear.

http://bookmarks.linuxquestions.org/.../user/sally123

has made the submissions and I believe that these should be removed.

Chow!

How about out of topic posts in LQ bookmarks?
How do we deal with this?

Since it's a social bookmark site, we don't really remove things unless they are egregious.

They are throwing links to the sites around to get Google to hit on them more...

They don't really hurt anything/anyone.

Well, I'd say the hurt the integrity of the Internet and also hurt the ability for search engines to return useful results, but I digress.
